"Police Incidents" in Bozeman, Montana

Bozeman is a charming city with roughly 40,000 people. It is a "green", low crime city. Here are some facts about recent "incidents" from the Bozeman police reports. This town has a safer feel to it than my LA.

Read through this list. I didn't make this stuff up and it is pretty funny.
